How do I set up a Terraria multiplayer server?
I am trying to set up a Terraria server that my friend and I can play on. We are both playing the Steam version. I believe I have it running, but when I send them an invite through Steam, it doesn't work. They say that it just keeps loading but never goes anywhere.
I have tried searching how to set up a multiplayer server on YouTube, but the instructions they give either aren't clear or they don't work.
How do I determine what my IP and port are? Is this my public IP, or is it like a 'world' IP or something? Do we need to download and set up a VPN? Or is there an easier way to get this working without downloading anything?
Best Answer
Port
You should be able to find the port in the console window that your server starts in (I would get the V4).
IP
Just search up "what is my IP."
